This is a part of a larger conceptual thread of investigation into the use of a twisted plane and having it become both expressive and structural.  The concept is pushed into furniture, a reception desk, part of a glass panel system within a cypress frame as a ruled surface between two differing curves, and investigated as a stressed skin panel for a roof plane defined with shaped cnc plasma cut ribs and stressed skin top upper & lower diaphragms.  The journey is its own reward . . . It’s all about process.
